They’re largely known for the early 90s club hit, O Fortuna, which samples the “O Fortuna” movement of composer Carl Orff’s famous Carmina Burana.

    'Farthest From The Sun' is one of black metal's best hidden secrets. [4] A great find in black metal circles. Great artist. Very very underrated in my opinion. [2] Malta needs more bands like this \m/ [2]

    No offence, you boys from Ohio, but any band that uploads an 'official image' over a significantly more popular artist with the same name deserves a kick in the teeth.

    After ten years (nearly) I'm not even sure I would want a new album, especially after reading this in the interview below (though that was almost ten years ago as well, it seems): "The new album will surely be totally different from this one. The epic element will be dropped drastically, and a more sombre atmosphere will haunt throughout. "
